He also can't make rival GMs trade a top 6 C whenever he wants them too either.

This. People don’t understand how hard it is to get an elite centre. Treliving hasn’t had a realistic chance to draft one. Monahan is still the best player at his draft position, and Bennett was a no brainer, with the next C picked being Larkin at 15th.
No one is trading a top C. And FAs? Aside from Tavares, what top Cs have signed somewhere else?
